Support for Residents

In this section

For the latest health news and advice regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19) please visit the NHS website or GOV.UK.

We understand that many of you will be worried about the impact Coronavirus will have on your household - and many will already be feeling it's effects.

There will be concerns about when you’re able to return to work, and also about salaries being reduced to 80% or stopped altogether.

The Government has introduced a raft of measures to support households experiencing financial disruptions.

We’re also working on other measures such as help to buy food and help to reduce your Council tax bill for 2020/21 if you are in receipt of Council Tax Support.

In this section you will be able to view the measures currently put in place by both the Government and from a local authority level to help support you during the Coronavirus.
